So you could figure out ways to make that work.
But the thing that I think is effective there is that tends to be one of the ones that people like the most because they can go in, they get their pump, they feel good.
It's pretty solely focused on one muscle group.
Probably more aesthetics than strength.
So again, I think that the bare minimum is probably twice a week in terms of cardiovascular, if you wanna have some semblance of cardiovascular conditioning.
But I think most people who actually need it more or wanna pursue it more than that are gonna need more time to do that.
So at some point, it can't just be relegated to a day off or a day off from the weight training workouts.
So at some point, it has to occur on the same day.
And in that case, I just like to put it at the end of the workout,
because you don't want to in any way compromise the weight training workout.
The intensity of those workouts is important.
I just like to put that at the end, realizing that even if my effort level is lower, my output is lower, if it's still placing a demand on my cardiac output to get that conditioning effect, because I'm fatigued, it still has a demand on my cardiac output.
So it's still achieving its goal, but it didn't interfere with my main goal of being able to increase my performance in the gym.
If we could blend
to function across these realms and not have such a delineation between this is my weight training and this is my conditioning, but figure out a way to blend them together.
I always think that you've got a better opportunity to get that more well-rounded result.
And I like to kind of mix up that straight conditioning work and also some of the footwork drills.
Like we have some high expectations for guys that come into our programs, like to just do some footwork drills.
Like ladders.
like ladders or line drills or something.
